/*!
  MFnGenericAttribute is a function set for attributes that can accept
  several types of data. A generic attribute is similar to a typed
  attribute (MFnTypedAttribute) except that it has a list of types
  that it considers valid.

  If the attribute will only take one type of data then it is more
  efficient to use one of the other attribute function sets such as
  MFnTypedAttribute or MFnNumericAttribute.
